This 60-Second Video Knows If You're Sleep-Deprived

It might be time to put down that afternoon latte.

If every morning is a battle with your alarm clock and you're chugging multiple cups of coffee just to get through the day, you might be sleep-deprived. A new YouTube video making the rounds claims to know whether you're really getting enough sleep at night.

Watch the video to determine if you're getting adequate sleep and seeing things as they happen, or if your brain is functioning through small blackouts called "micro-sleeps."

Did you catch the bus changing color? Or the buildings disappearing in the background?

Among other health concerns, a recent study shows that lack of sleep can actually damage your brain.
